Hi folks,

I am writing a Neutron extension which needs to take 1000s of network-ids
as argument for filtering. The CURL call is as follows:

curl -i -X GET 
'http://hostname:port/neutron/v2.0/extension_name.json?net-id=fffecbd1-0f6d-4f02-aee7-ca62094830f5&net-id=fffeee07-4f94-4cff-bf8e-a2aa7be59e2e'
-H "User-Agent: python-neutronclient" -H "Accept: application/json" -H
"X-Auth-Token: cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc"


The list of net-ids can go up to 1000s. The problem is, with such large
url, I get the "Request URI too long" error. I don't want to update this
limit as proxies can have their own limits.

What options do I have to send 1000s of network IDs?

1. -d '{}' is not a recommended option for GET call and wsgi Controller
drops the data part when routing the request.

2. Use POST instead of GET? I will need to write the get_<resource> logic
inside create_resource logic for this to work. Its a hack, but complies
with HTTP standard.
